"I will go with the men from the Xuanying Bureau." A streak of resolve flashed in Guo Xi's eyes. He understood that once he arrived at the Xuanying Bureau, he might have to endure physical suffering.
"However, that is not a problem for me; after all, I did not handle the private salt trade myself." Guo Xi gave the Heir of Prince Jing a reassuring look, but then his brow furrowed. "The biggest problem now is who reported this matter, whether that person has further schemes, and whether Prince Qing will betray us."
The Heir of Prince Jing nodded. After lowering his eyes in contemplation for a moment, he said in a deep voice, "I suspect that other princes have begun to fear Zhao Yi, which is why they are moving against him. I cannot be certain about further schemes, but since the tip-off letter provided no evidence, it is highly likely the other side has none. As for Prince Qing, I cannot be sure if he will betray us. However, I will seek him out as soon as possible to clarify things."
